Well crap haha. I'm stumped. Maybe you can ask flipz, he has the version of WiFi Tether. Try using WPA again and see if it works. It may say unsecured network, but see if it can surf that way too.

Sorry it is WEP. Hit menu - preferences - enable WiFi encryption and change the passphrase. See if that works.

Well I think I got the Access Control thing to work, basically when I turned it on, then connected my laptop, my phone notified me that the laptop had connected. So I did NOT check the check mark on the Access Control page for the laptop I was trying to connect. So I guess it is working...?

Can you surf without it checked?
